Product Notes

Instructor Herve Gheldman explains this DVD, "Everyone talks about MMA... but MMA is relatively new. A few individuals begin to distinguish in their personality and techniques, but there is still much to do. With this DVD series I wanted to share simple techniques taken from Sambo and achievable in MMA. Sambo, created in the former USSR for the police and the army, is a comprehensive discipline, made to fit all forms of combat and all situations. I discovered it years ago, with my professor Oleg Taktarov, Sambo champion and also winner of the UFC VI. He was one of the first to highlight Sambo in all it's forms. Today, I spread it and I train fighters in Sambo, MMA, Pankration and Shooto. Thanks to these techniques, I have checked the efficiency of Sambo, and here is the result of this work in this first volume. A key strength of Sambo is it's logic in feet-fists-ground sequences, chokes, and all the techniques you need to learn to get you started in MMA. So good work and see you soon on the mat!" Instructor Herve Gheldman: National Technical Director and international expert. Russia Master Sport Sambo and martial artist for over 40 years, Herve has developed his Sambo system after many years of competition - a world champion title on his resume - and courses around the world. He is a police and military expert, and regularly visits Special Forces in their training center. Languages: English - French - Spanish - German; Extra Features: Photo Gallery, Trailers.
